NonCredibleDefense
A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

Does she not understand that they'd behead her, supporter or not?
This is very common but so weird. Like lgbtq+ supporting communism, tards supporting nazism etc, brother they wont and historically speaking haven't hesitated on camping you day 1.
What is wrong with these people
There is nothing inharently anti-lgbtq about communism. There is with fascism. Fascism relies on a cultural mythology to appeals to some form of purity, which usually won't include LGBTQ+ people because that's relatively recently accepted.
Communism doesn't have any of that. It may include it on a case-by-case basis, but so do capitalist nations and democracies. Just look at the US for that.
I'm tired of the very basic "communism bad" takes. I thought we were done with that. You can build an argument against it if you want to. It's not hard. Just saying it's a boogeyman who causes all the problems isn't one though
Case-to-case, as in, all cases? It's not my fault all commie regimes act like fascist ones, with the only difference being pretending to be scared of money yet using it
Pretty much every communist group has been undermined by the US. Cuba has done pretty well for itself despite not being able to trade almost at all, for example. There has never been a communist nation that has been free to experiment without US intervention. Of course they all fail. (I wonder why the US is so scared of it succeeding if "it's always doomed to fail?")
And honestly, thank God for that. US and especially CIA have saved perhaps even millions of lives doing that.
Gotta hand it out to Cubans, credit where credit is due. Also Cubans have only genocided a little, though it is an interesting thought experiment to have if Cuba was situated in-land with considerable minorities.
But then we have countries like N.Korea which actively trade with the world thru china yet are shitholes. Or china itself, which was a such a shithole it legitimately had to abandon every part of the economic-portion of communism (but still of course kept the totalitarianism and genocide intrinsic to communism) to make itself stay afloat.

The CIA destroyed a democracy that was empowering the people partially out of fear of communism and partially because the United Fruit Company (now Chiquita, aka basically the only company that sells all of the bananas) wouldn't have been able to exploit the labor as effectively.
This is only one example of what looks like a very beneficial communist country coming into power and, having almost no ethical issues, being destroyed by the US. This is not a country people point to about communism being evil, obviously. The issue is the only ones that can survive the US intervention need to be much stronger. This almost requires a central dictatorship, and possibly cultural hegemony. I'm not saying these are good things. I'm saying survivorship bias has made you think it's the way things need to be, which isn't true but is useful for capitalists to tell you.
Edit to add: The dictatorship that followed (which the US didn't oppose because it supported their economic interests) committed a genocide of the Mayan people.
Good. Didn't read rest of it.
Of course you didn't, and as such your opinion isn't valid. An opinion made from ignorance isn't one anyone should listen to.
What the fuck kind of smooth brained kindergarten thinking is this? Get a grown up to read you a book or two mate
So, which one are you mate?
For the anger and bitterness imma put you under the commie subsection of fascism.
Terms and conditions apply
54% of Americans read at less than a 6th grade level and fuck me if this parade of drooling, sister-fucking morons hasn't proven it.
Lmao, not even an american but alright. Reading books has taught me that ethnic cleansings and mass murders of eg. sexual minorities is an inherent, unbreakable part of communism, intrinsic to its ideology.
But sure let's just forget reality if it defies what you believe in
Got a reference there bud, or are you just talking out your arse?
Any history book on the topic really. Honestly I'd recommend you to read anything, you seem to lack in basic knowledge on the subject matter
Ah cool so you really are just a dumbfuck then
Most devastating and imaginative tankie insult
